< Exodus 9 >

1 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh, and tell him, ‘This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: “Let my people go, that they may serve me.
BOEIPA loh Moses te, “Pharaoh taengah cet lamtah anih te thui pah. Hebrew kah Pathen Yahweh loh he ni a. thui. Ka pilnam te hlah lamtah kai ham thothueng uh saeh.
2 For if you refuse to let them go, and hold them still,
Tedae hlah ham na aal tih amih te na yuengyet pueng atah,
3 behold, the LORD’s hand is on your livestock which are in the field, on the horses, on the donkeys, on the camels, on the herds, and on the flocks with a very grievous pestilence.
BOEIPA kut te lohma kah na boiva soah, marhang soah, laak soah, kalauk soah, saelhung soah tla vetih boiva dongah duektahaw la muep tlung ne.
4 The LORD will make a distinction between the livestock of Israel and the livestock of Egypt; and nothing shall die of all that belongs to the children of Israel.”’”
Tedae BOEIPA loh Israel kah boiva laklo neh Egypt kah boiva laklo ah a hoep vetih Israel ca rhoek kah boeih tah ol nen pataeng duek pah mahpawh.
5 The LORD appointed a set time, saying, “Tomorrow the LORD shall do this thing in the land.”
BOEIPA loh thangvuen ah thui hamla khoning a khueh coeng. He kah hno he BOEIPA loh khohmuen ah a saii ni,” a ti nah.
6 The LORD did that thing on the next day; and all the livestock of Egypt died, but of the livestock of the children of Israel, not one died.
Tekah BOEIPA loh ol te a vuen ah a thoeng sak. Te dongah Egypt kah boiva tah boeih duek. Tedae Israel ca rhoek kah boiva tah pakhat khaw duek pawh.
7 Pharaoh sent, and, behold, there was not so much as one of the livestock of the Israelites dead. But the heart of Pharaoh was stubborn, and he didn’t let the people go.
Te vaengah Pharaoh loh hlang a tueih akhaw Israel kah boiva tah pakhat pataeng a duek moenih ne. Tedae Pharaoh lungbuei te a thangpom pueng tih pilnam te hlah pawh.
8 The LORD said to Moses and to Aaron, “Take handfuls of ashes of the furnace, and let Moses sprinkle it towards the sky in the sight of Pharaoh.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses neh Aaron te, “Hmailing khangvai te namamih rhoi ham na kutnarhum a bae lo rhoi lamtah Moses loh Pharaoh mikhmuh ah vaan la haeh saeh.
9 It shall become small dust over all the land of Egypt, and shall be boils and blisters breaking out on man and on animal, throughout all the land of Egypt.”
Te vaengah Egypt kho tom ah laipi la poeh vetih, Egypt khohmuen boeih kah hlang so neh rhamsa dongah buhlut la om a hnai neh phuem ni,” a ti nah.
10 They took ashes of the furnace, and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses sprinkled it up towards the sky; and it became boils and blisters breaking out on man and on animal.
Te dongah hmailing khangvai te a loh rhoi tih Pharaoh mikhmuh ah pai rhoi. Te te Moses loh vaan la a haeh tih buhlut la poeh tih hlang pum dong neh rhamsa dongah a hnai a coe pah.
11 The magicians couldn’t stand before Moses because of the boils; for the boils were on the magicians and on all the Egyptians.
Te vaengah hmayuep rhoek tah buhlut dongah Moses mikhmuh la pai ham noeng uh pawh. Buhlut te hmayuep rhoek so neh Egypt pum soah a om pah.
12 The LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he didn’t listen to them, as the LORD had spoken to Moses.
Tedae BOEIPA loh Pharaoh kah lungbuei te a moem pah dongah BOEIPA loh Moses taengah a thui bangla amih rhoi ol te hnatun pawh.
13 The LORD said to Moses, “Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh, and tell him, ‘This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: “Let my people go, that they may serve me.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses taengah, “Mincang ah thoo lamtah Pharaoh mikhmuh ah pai pah. Te vaengah anih te thui pah. Hebrew kah Pathen Yahweh loh he ni a. thui. Ka pilnam he hlah lamtah kai ham thothueng saeh.
14 For this time I will send all my plagues against your heart, against your officials, and against your people; that you may know that there is no one like me in all the earth.
Tahae voei khat la kai kah lucik cungkuem te na lungbuei neh na sal rhoek taengah, na pilnam taengah kan tueih. Te nen ni diklai pum ah kamah bang a om pawt te na ming eh.
15 For now I would have stretched out my hand, and struck you and your people with pestilence, and you would have been cut off from the earth;
Ka kut he ka hlah tih namah neh na pilnam te duektahaw neh kang ngawn coeng dongah diklai lamloh na pat pawn ni.
16 but indeed for this cause I have made you stand: to show you my power, and that my name may be declared throughout all the earth,
He kong dongah ka thadueng na phoe ham ni nang kam pai sak. Te dongah ka ming he diklai pum ah thui ham om.
17 because you still exalt yourself against my people, that you won’t let them go.
Amih hlah pawt ham te ka pilnam taengah na picai uh pueng.
18 Behold, tomorrow about this time I will cause it to rain a very grievous hail, such as has not been in Egypt since the day it was founded even until now.
Thangvuen a tue vai khat tah rhael muep kan tlan sak khungdaeng pueng ni he. Te bang te a suen khohnin lamloh tahae hil khaw Egypt ah a om moenih.
19 Now therefore command that all of your livestock and all that you have in the field be brought into shelter. The hail will come down on every man and animal that is found in the field, and isn’t brought home, and they will die.”’”
Te dongah tueih lamtah na boiva neh na taengkah boeih te khaw, khohmuen kah hlang boeih neh lohma kah a hmuh rhamsa khaw bakuep sak laeh. Im la a coi pawt te rhael loh a tlak thil vetih duek ni,” a ti nah.
20 Those who feared the LORD’s word amongst the servants of Pharaoh made their servants and their livestock flee into the houses.
Pharaoh sal rhoek khuikah BOEIPA ol aka rhih long tah a sal rhoek neh a boiva khaw im la a rhaelrham puei.
21 Whoever didn’t respect the LORD’s word left his servants and his livestock in the field.
Tedae BOEIPA ol te a lungbuei ah aka khueh pawt long tah a sal neh a boiva te lohma ah a hnoo.
22 The LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand towards the sky, that there may be hail in all the land of Egypt, on man, and on animal, and on every herb of the field, throughout the land of Egypt.”
BOEIPA loh Moses taengah, “Na kut te vaan la thueng lamtah Egypt khohmuen boeih ah hlang so neh rhamsa soah khaw, Egypt diklai kah khohmuen baelhing boeih soah rhael tla bitni,” a ti nah.
23 Moses stretched out his rod towards the heavens, and the LORD sent thunder and hail; and lightning flashed down to the earth. The LORD rained hail on the land of Egypt.
Moses loh a conghol te vaan la a thueng tangloeng vaengah BOEIPA loh a ol neh rhael neh a tueih tih hmai khaw diklai la cet. Te vaengah BOEIPA loh Egypt khohmuen ah rhael a tlan sak.
24 So there was very severe hail, and lightning mixed with the hail, such as had not been in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.
Rhael a tlak vaengah rhael lakli ah hmai khaw muep hli khungdaeng. Namtom taengah aka om parhi te Egypt khohmuen tom ah te bang a om noek moenih.
25 The hail struck throughout all the land of Egypt all that was in the field, both man and animal; and the hail struck every herb of the field, and broke every tree of the field.
Egypt kho tom ah rhael loh lohma kah boeih, hlang lamloh rhamsa hil khaw a ngawn. Khohmuen baelhing boeih te rhael loh a ngawn tih khohmuen thingkung boeih a khong.
26 Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, there was no hail.
Israel ca rhoek kah Goshen khohmuen bueng ah ni rhael a tlak pawh.
27 Pharaoh sent and called for Moses and Aaron, and said to them, “I have sinned this time. The LORD is righteous, and I and my people are wicked.
Te vaengah Pharaoh loh ol a tah tih Moses neh Aaron te a khue. Te phoeiah amih rhoi te, “Ka tholh bal coeng, BOEIPA he dueng ngawn dae kamah neh ka pilnam ni aka halang coeng.
28 Pray to the LORD; for there has been enough of mighty thunderings and hail. I will let you go, and you shall stay no longer.”
BOEIPA taengah thangthui rhoi laeh. Pathen kah ol neh rhael a tlak khaw yet coeng. Nangmih te kan tueih daengah nan pai thil ham te na khoep pawt eh?,” a ti nah.
29 Moses said to him, “As soon as I have gone out of the city, I will spread out my hands to the LORD. The thunders shall cease, and there will not be any more hail; that you may know that the earth is the LORD’s.
Te vaengah Moses loh anih te, “Khopuei he ka nong tak tih BOEIPA taengah ka kut ka phuel ni. Ol khaw paa tih rhael koep a bo pawt daengah ni diklai he BOEIPA ham ni tila na ming eh.
30 But as for you and your servants, I know that you don’t yet fear the LORD God.”
Tedae namah neh na sal rhoek loh BOEIPA Pathen mikhmuh ah na rhih uh hlan tila ka ming.
31 The flax and the barley were struck, for the barley had ripened and the flax was blooming.
Thut neh cangtun neh khaw cangtun vueilue neh thut muem khaw a ngawn coeng.
32 But the wheat and the spelt were not struck, for they had not grown up.
Tedae cang neh cangkuem tah a hnong pueng dongah ngawn pawh.
33 Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh, and spread out his hands to the LORD; and the thunders and hail ceased, and the rain was not poured on the earth.
Moses loh Pharaoh taeng lamkah khopuei a nong tak tih BOEIPA taengah a kut a phuel. Te daengah rhaek ol neh rhael khaw paa tih khotlan loh khohmuen ah bo pawh.
34 When Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunders had ceased, he sinned yet more, and hardened his heart, he and his servants.
Khotlan neh rhael neh ol paa coeng tila Pharaoh loh a hmuh van neh tholh te a khoep tih amah neh a sal rhoek loh a lungbuei a thangpom.
35 The heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he didn’t let the children of Israel go, just as the LORD had spoken through Moses.
Te dongah Pharaoh lungbuei tah ning tih BOEIPA loh Moses kut ah a uen bangla Israel ca hlah pawh.
